Episode 46: Travel, Truth and Transformation with Laura Latimer “Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all.”— Helen Keller Laura Latimer is an international speaker, a leader in healthcare tech, and a pioneer in the no-code / low-code movement of entrepreneurship. Her heart beats for empowering women and improving the lives of travel healthcare workers.  Laura started her company, Nomadicare, without the usual resources people have. She had barely any experience, no training, and certainly no external funding. But the one thing she did have was a lot of heart. And if you’ve read any of my books, you’ll know that the right attitude makes all the difference. While working in the healthcare industry, Laura experienced a problem firsthand and said to herself, “You know what? I’m going to be the one to fix this!” In that pivotal moment, her mission to revolutionize travel healthcare was born.  Today, Laura is part of the 2% of women entrepreneurs who generate over USD $1 million of annual revenue but, more importantly, she makes an enormous impact on the world. In this interview, we’ll go through: The most defining moment in Laura’s life. How Laura turned a simple idea into million-dollar business. The dizzying highs and crushing lows of entrepreneurship. Her tips to help YOU create a business without any experience, training, or money. How Laura maintains a winning mindset. And a whole lot more!  Let’s WIN THE DAY with Laura Latimer. _ 🎞️ YouTube version: https://youtu.be/kOCOMP3FngQ 📖 Blog version: https://jameswhitt.com/travel-truth-and-transformation-with-laura-latimer 🎧 Episode webpage: https://jameswhitt.com/travel-truth-and-transformation-with-laura-latimer _ Show links: 📝 Nomadicare on Facebook: https://fb.com/Nomadicarecom 📷 Nomadicare on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nomadicare ⚡ Nomadicare website: http://www.nomadicare.com 🎙️ Have a podcast of your own and want to learn how to monetize it?

Episode 45: Pain, Passion and Profit with Dr. Steve Sudell “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.” – Benjamin Franklin We've got an entrepreneurial superstar joining us on the show today! Our guest will reveal his secrets to: Creating products that people love Raising $1+ million through crowdfunding, and Generating multiple 7-figure exits. That's right, he's done a LOT, despite still only being in his 30s.  Dr. Steve Sudell received his doctorate in Physical Therapy in 2009, and in an accomplished career he’s made it his mission to find non-invasive solutions to get people back to doing what they love. In 2015, he co-founded StretchLab, a revolutionary assisted-stretching facility that helps individuals improve their overall flexibility and well-being through stretching. Steve created the full range of stretching protocols that are still in use today, and also trained hundreds of practitioners – known as “flexologists” – in the process. With Steve’s expertise, StretchLab went from one location to more than 200 in less than four years. In 2019, Steve exited the company in a seven-figure deal. After watching his younger sister battle leukemia and suffer from extreme pain, Steve knew there were a lot more people who needed help. In 2017, to help the millions of people who suffer from chronic neck pain, he created the Neck Hammock. It arrived as the most affordable, portable, and effective ‘at home’ neck pain solution on the market. To fund the project, he launched two crowdfunding campaigns simultaneously that raised USD $1.6 million from 20,000+ backers, and landed in the top 1% of all Kickstarter campaigns. Since then, the Neck Hammock has been featured on The Dr. Oz Show, The Today Show, Forbes, and Gwyneth Paltrow’s Goop. After grossing more than USD $20 million in sales, Steve had another seven-figure exit in January 2021. We cover a lot of ground in this one! You'll learn how to make your health a priority (no matter how hectic your schedule is), when it's time to exit your passion project, and exactly what it takes to make it in the business world in 2021. And remember, a little inspiration at the right time can completely change the trajectory of someone’s life, so if there’s a friend who needs to check out this interview, share it with them now.

“No day is so bad it can’t be fixed with a nap.” — Carrie Snow Today, we sit down with the world’s foremost authority on sleep. Dr Michael Breus is a 3x bestselling author, clinical psychologist, and sleep educator. He has appeared all over television, including Oprah, The Today Show, and on The Dr Oz show more than 40 times. Dr Breus is also a regular contributor to major publications such as The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, and The Washington Post. When he’s not doing media appearances, Dr Breus works with some of the most successful individuals on the planet who want to perform at their peak with as little sleep as possible. We spend about 30% of our time asleep, which adds up to almost 3,000 hours each year on a single activity, yet when we think about peak performance, we rarely think about ‘sleep’ as an urgent priority to fix. In this interview, we’ll go through: A five-point plan to improve your sleep right now The latest hacks in sleep science to help you perform at your best How people with PTSD and depression can sleep better The best way to wake up energized And a whole lot more! As we get started, remember the right bit of inspiration can completely transform someone’s life, so if there’s someone you know who needs to hear this – and I’m sure there is, since lack of quality sleep is a dangerous side effect of the stressful world we’re in today – share it with them right now.

Episode 42: Fight for Every Breath with Marcus Smith “The more you sweat in peace, the less you bleed in war.” – Norman Schwarzkopf On this show I like to bring you the real mindset masters, and today we’ve got an absolute superstar, Marcus Smith, who’s been through more wars than most. Marcus is an entrepreneur, an extreme athlete, and a performance coach. Based in Dubai, he’s the founder of InnerFight, which helps everyone – from kids to corporate clients – unlock their peak performance, as well as owner of Smith St Paleo, which provides paleo food offerings to help people make better nutrition decisions. Marcus is fit, and I mean FIT. At age 18, he started playing professional rugby, making it to the 2009 Rugby Sevens World Cup. Since then, he’s completed pretty much anything with “ultra” in its name, including: the Marathon des Sables, a six-day ultramarathon through the Sahara Desert known as “the toughest foot race on Earth”; a 230km (143 mile) self-supported ultramarathon across Kenya; and a footrace on the Auvergne volcanoes in France. In February 2018, while training to set a world record in ultra-cycling, Marcus was hit by a truck, with the impact smashing him into a brick wall. But he stared death right in the face and said, “Not today.” Rather than focus on what he lost, Marcus decided to create a documentary ‘Fight for Every Breath’ where he details his experience and his journey back to full health.  Just nine months after the accident, Marcus completed not one, not two, but 30 MARATHONS … IN 30 DAYS! In this episode, we’re going to talk with Marcus about: The secrets to his extraordinary self-discipline The accident that almost killed him (and how he came to terms with his trauma) The darkest moments of his recovery What you can do for supreme motivation each day; and How to inspire unwavering self-discipline in others.  Strap yourself in.

Episode 39: The Ultimate Holiday Gift Guide for 2020 “When things change inside you, things change around you.” – Buddha (This will be the last episode for 2020, but if you’re new to the show there’s 30+ other episodes for you to check out on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and wherever you listen to podcasts. For exclusive video content to make 2021 your best year yet, remember to subscribe on YouTube.) Welcome to my 3rd annual holiday gift guide! Each year, I outline the items that have made the biggest impact in my life throughout the year, and I know they’ll do the same for you. This holiday season – rather than squandering money on gifts with little long-term value – consider giving something practical, like a life-changing book that gets the recipient excited about taking ownership of their future. Filling your mind with the knowledge you need is the best way to transcend your circumstances so you can achieve whatever you want in life, regardless of what’s happened in your past. Every book I have read has changed my life in one way or another, so that hunger for learning should be a priority for you too. Without further ado, here are the books that I think would make the best gifts this holiday season, for you, a friend or a loved one. They’re mentioned by category, rather than in any ranking order, so just pick whichever ones intrigue you the most. Until next year, onwards and upwards always. _ 🎞️ YouTube version: https://youtu.be/g_NsxvfTfwQ 📖 Blog version: https://jameswhitt.com/the-ultimate-holiday-gift-guide-for-2020/ _ Show links: 🤺 Millennial Samurai by George Chanos: https://millennialsamurai.com 🌞 Blue Sky Kingdom by Bruce Kirkby: https://amzn.to/2Hkig79  🚧 The Road to Success by Brandon T.

Episode 37: The Road to Resilience with Dr Sonja Stribling “The only thing worse than being blind is having sight but no vision." - Helen Keller Before we begin, I want to make something very clear: how you respond to adversity when it inevitably strikes is what separates ordinary people from extraordinary achievers. That’s right, none of us are immune to adversity – and, in fact, the most successful people use the adversity they’ve faced as fuel to move forward stronger and more resilient than ever before. Today we sit down with Dr Sonja Stribling who has faced enormous adversity her entire life. She was born into a family as the youngest of 12 children, to parents who only had a second-grade education. At age 15, she gave birth to her first child. And just two years later, at 17 years old, she was raped and left for dead. Sonja went on to college, but just prior to graduating, she joined the US Army for what would become a 21-year career, including combat tours in war-torn countries like Iraq and reaching the rank of Major. While in the military, her 18-year marriage fell apart, and she returned to civilian life without any idea of what to do next. Considering taking her own life, Sonja had an epiphany that there was more to her story than what had been written. Since that fateful moment, she has become an internationally renowned speaker, author, television presenter, and business coach, as well as recipient of the Presidential Lifetime Achievement Award. In this wide-ranging interview, we talk about: The heartbreaking moments from her adolescence What war taught her about humanity How divorce saved her life Why she’s so passionate about using financial freedom to empower women The activism we’ve seen in 2020; and How poor communities can escape the poverty mindset. She holds nothing back and I know you’re going to love it.
